This salad might not look like much and that is due to the fact that my kids wanted to try it. However, they did not want the red onion, celery and red pepper in it. So for them I left it out. Next time, I will definitely make my own batch so I can enjoy this delicious salad with a bit of crunch. The pickled jalapeños definitely add a very nice spicy kick to the salad, that I loved. But not everyone likes things as spicy as I do so you can reduce the amount to 1/4 cup for a less spicy kick.
